Jon Bernthal and Tessa Thompson led the way for TV on Netflix in the first half of the year.
The pair’s crime thriller His & Hers reached 104 million views globally from its premiere date on January 8 through the end of June, making it the most-watched show in H1 2026, according to a streamer’s biannual report.
Besides Season 4 of Bridgerton, nothing else on the service even came close to racking up that large of an audience. The latest installment of Shondaland romance series amassed 100M views from launch on January 29 through the end of June, putting it in second place for TV in the first half of the year.
Another newcomer, Harlan Coben’s I Will Find You, took third place with 64M views, which is impressive considering the series just arrived June 18.
